Words from Mr. Lee

“You are more comfortable being uncomfortable, and that is a good growth direction”

and

“I am very proud of you.”

Ben Lee was the first person I heard talk about USC’s Communication Management program; his introduction to the program resonated so much that I mentioned him in my personal statement when I applied. I switched advisors at the start of my program so I could learn under his instruction, and surely I have. The past month he has really pushed me to be untraditional and clear-sighted in my decisions, and confident in the prospect of: the future.
